00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:03,720
Hello and welcome.
Don't touch that dial.
2
00:00:04,200 --> 00:00:09,160
It's Noah and the vision to my
Wanda, the Infinity stones to my
3
00:00:09,160 --> 00:00:15,000
Thanos Derek I we're back in
Westview guys, and we're also
4
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:18,680
back.
We had a a tumultuous, you know,
5
00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:22,360
week in the in the abide of
household with like some food
6
00:00:22,360 --> 00:00:24,920
poisoning and stuff like that.
But like let's move on from
7
00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:28,080
that.
Let's go back in time to Wanda
8
00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:30,280
vision.
What an era, what an era.
9
00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:33,160
It was just a beautiful moment
in television history.
10
00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:37,120
It was a scary moment in the
world when it first came out,
11
00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:41,600
but man was it entertaining.
I'm really excited to talk about
12
00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:44,160
this show.
We have not seen it since it
13
00:00:44,160 --> 00:00:45,640
aired.
We did episodes on that.
14
00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:48,880
So if you want like our episode
by episode like deep dives
15
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:53,120
because we were I would say a
whole nother podcast in that
16
00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:54,680
era.
This was 2021, right?
17
00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:58,680
This is it's 2024 now.
It's been a while.
18
00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:02,720
Pandemic, it's been a while.
I mean, even we weren't even
19
00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:06,480
doing video back then.
And on top of that, we had some
20
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:09,640
sort of makeshift set up with
blankets hanging on the walls.
21
00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:12,480
So we've come a long way here at
about a podcast.
22
00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:16,520
My God, I'm excited though to
get into this before everything,
23
00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:21,600
follow us on all the socials,
Patreon, Discord, all of that
24
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:25,000
great stuff.
We are going to be doing Agatha
25
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:27,240
all along, hence why we're going
back to Westview.
26
00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:30,280
We thought it would be a good
idea to kind of revisit it,
27
00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:32,000
right?
We've been doing watch parties
28
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:33,840
on our Discord.
So if you're not on our Discord,
29
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:36,560
we have depending on when you're
listening to this or watching
30
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:39,240
this, we have one more watch
party for the last three
31
00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:43,360
episodes of Want Division this
Sunday at 6:00 PM Eastern Time.
32
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:46,760
So join the discord, hop in the
watch party channel chat.
33
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:48,840
There's no mics.
We don't talk during watch
34
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:51,760
parties, no.
We watch and we get our little
35
00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:53,960
fingies going and it's honestly
been a blast.
36
00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:56,600
I've been having a lot of fun.
So thank you to those who have
37
00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:59,320
been joining us and you should
all join us for the last.
38
00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:03,640
One so good.
OK, this is weird because like
39
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:08,800
spoiler alert, yeah, I guess
it's been out for 3 + 3 years.
40
00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:13,560
A little over three years.
All of One Division slash the
41
00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:17,520
MCU thus far can be spoiled
going forward.
42
00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:20,520
The plot.
Is Wanda Vision the first MCU
43
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:23,000
show?
So let us officially take
44
00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:26,560
another bite of Wanda Vision,
right?
45
00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:37,520
Nailed it.
So let's pretend, OK, we did a
46
00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:41,080
rewatch already.
We watched all nine episodes,
47
00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:45,000
which was an interesting thing
to do because we watched it as
48
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:47,520
it was coming out so we haven't
binged it before.
49
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:50,720
So seeing the last time I Wand
Division and not skipping any of
50
00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:54,640
that because why would you?
Let's pretend the like social
51
00:02:54,640 --> 00:02:56,200
media embargo is still
happening.
52
00:02:56,640 --> 00:03:02,000
Give me your initial reactions
to re watching Wand Division.
53
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:04,080
Like what are your thoughts?
How do you feel about going back
54
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:09,200
to Westview?
Oh, so like we said, we have not
55
00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:11,600
watched this since it first came
out, when it was coming out week
56
00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:14,720
by week.
And ever since then, whenever
57
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:17,880
we've done a Marvel series,
we've always kind of done this
58
00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:20,800
thing of what are your top five
Marvel series?
59
00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:23,440
And one division always landed
in my number one spot.
60
00:03:23,920 --> 00:03:28,960
I am happy to say that after re
watching it, it is not only
61
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:32,800
still in my number one spot, but
it is highlighted, it is bolded,
62
00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:38,680
it is glittering gold and it
just still is so good after all
63
00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:42,800
this time.
Yeah, you did have Miss Marvel,
64
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:44,680
I think above that.
So would you, I?
65
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:47,160
Don't think I ever did.
Or was that mean?
66
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:48,680
That was you.
That was probably me.
67
00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:50,640
Yeah.
I mean, I I think Wanda Vision
68
00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:54,800
is my top five of like favorite
MCU Marvel things ever.
69
00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:58,600
I think it is almost a near
perfect thing that Marvel has
70
00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:00,640
ever done.
It was the beginning of phase
71
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:01,920
four.
It was post end game.
72
00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:03,840
What was going to happen?
We had a pandemic.
73
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:08,400
But like, I think it, it's, it's
interesting to separate.
74
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:12,520
Like, so now we're far away from
that time, right when all the
75
00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:14,720
theories are going out.
There's the Mephisto thing,
76
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:16,200
there's the connections with
everything.
77
00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:21,519
But like, everybody was so
together in this show, at least
78
00:04:21,519 --> 00:04:23,600
on the Internet, right in the
circles that we were doing and
79
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:26,400
on this podcast.
And we really found a lot of the
80
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:29,280
people, our community that way.
So it holds a very special place
81
00:04:29,280 --> 00:04:32,080
in my heart.
But watching it separated right
82
00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:35,280
from the Internet and watching
it every week, it's still so
83
00:04:35,280 --> 00:04:38,640
good.
It's still holds up perfectly.
84
00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:41,040
That's exactly it.
At at the time, there was a bit
85
00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:44,320
of a hype around it, I think,
and that kind of added to our
86
00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:47,200
excitement and watching it.
But watching it now when all
87
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:50,880
that has faded, it's still just
incredible.
88
00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:52,920
I think that there are so many
pieces here.
89
00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:57,360
First, I I think that there was
a lot of care given to this
90
00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:59,080
series, right?
Because this was the first
91
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:03,600
Marvel television series, right?
So you could tell that the
92
00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:06,600
plotting was perfectly done each
installment.
93
00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:08,840
There wasn't a wasted episode,
right?
94
00:05:08,840 --> 00:05:10,720
None of these episodes felt like
filler.
95
00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:13,120
They were all working together
to tell the story.
96
00:05:13,280 --> 00:05:15,800
And really, in an ingenious way,
right?
97
00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:19,480
To tell the same one linear
story through different
98
00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:22,280
nostalgic sitcom eras.
Through decades.
99
00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:25,920
Through decades.
And So what a feat to have to
100
00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:29,520
over to take.
And I think that in looking at
101
00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:32,080
the work that was done,
obviously with the sets and the
102
00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:36,400
costuming and how they were
still themselves through all
103
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:39,400
these different decades, even
though they looked differently
104
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:40,800
or they were dressing
differently, even even the
105
00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:42,880
house, even though the house
looked different in each
106
00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:45,480
episode, there was still the
staircase, there was still the
107
00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:47,360
fireplace.
And they were still things that
108
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:49,520
were a nod to the one that came
before it.
109
00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:53,760
So I think in watching this,
just seeing how meticulously it
110
00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:57,160
was planned and how well it was
done, it still holds up three
111
00:05:57,160 --> 00:05:59,360
years later.
Oh yeah, yeah, so I mean, I
112
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:02,680
think like our like initial
reactions rewatching it still
113
00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:05,760
loved it still holds up.
Go rewatch it if you haven't
114
00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:10,360
join us this Sunday to watch the
last three episodes into Agatha
115
00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:14,160
all along.
But it was fun rewatching this
116
00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:18,440
with the eye of looking for
things that we might have missed
117
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:23,560
last time, which there was a
few, but also realizing what the
118
00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:25,520
story was trying to tell us in
the beginning.
119
00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:29,240
Because I think the thing that
we missed watching it for the
120
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:32,080
first time and not going back
and watching it is that we know
121
00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:34,960
what the story was, right?
We know that it was about her
122
00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:36,280
grief.
We know that it was she was
123
00:06:36,280 --> 00:06:38,240
trying to get all the things
that were taken away from her.
124
00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:41,440
And we know that Agatha was
pulling a lot of strings.
125
00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:45,320
So watching it again from the
beginning and knowing that it's
126
00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:48,560
like, oh, that's why that
happened, that's why that
127
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:49,960
happened.
That's why the ads were
128
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:54,080
happening at the ticking time
bomb type ad and it was the bomb
129
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,440
that her and her brother were
staring at for two days, you
130
00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:58,960
know.
So it's interesting re watching
131
00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:01,160
it and knowing what happens in
the end.
132
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:05,960
But also like just like in awe
of the cast, Paul Bettany,
133
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:10,600
Elizabeth Olsen, Kathryn Hahn,
everybody, Tiana Paris.
134
00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:13,480
So good.
Not only playing the comedy, but
135
00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:15,960
the drama.
Oh my God, just flip flopping
136
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:18,800
between the both of them.
So fantastic.
137
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:21,840
Yeah, absolutely.
And you know, to go back to one
138
00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:25,960
of the points that you were just
making about knowing the things
139
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:28,360
that are going to happen and
kind of following along with it
140
00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:32,560
as it's being revealed, it was
nice not having the static of
141
00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:35,760
the questions, right?
Isn't Mephisto, who is this?
142
00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:38,960
You know, what does this mean as
far as this version of
143
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:42,720
Quicksilver being here, you
know, being able to drop all of
144
00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:46,960
that and really just watch it
and see how, you know, these
145
00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:50,040
actors obviously knew the the
trajectory, right, right, of
146
00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:52,640
what was happening.
But to see them play it out and
147
00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:55,800
know what they were playing out,
you could see the little minute
148
00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:58,240
details that they were working
in there and just really how
149
00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:02,680
impressive that is.
You know, not only with Agatha,
150
00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:06,000
right, who was kind of the
breakout star of the series, but
151
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:08,800
even taking into account Paul
Bettany as vision.
152
00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:12,160
Vision existing in this world,
being so happy across from the
153
00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:15,280
love of his life.
But slowly realizing that things
154
00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:21,840
aren't right and and looking at
what does it mean to be happy
155
00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:27,800
but by destroying other people's
lives and and giving up that
156
00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:29,920
happiness to make the world
quote right again.
157
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:31,840
Yeah, I, it is interesting,
right?
158
00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:35,280
Even after, I mean, I have my
feelings, especially if you're
159
00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:36,600
watching this.
I have my feelings.
160
00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:39,720
I feel, God, I said feelings how
many times a month?
161
00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:49,000
I feel like now I'm trying not
to say that word and now it's
162
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:52,160
really hard.
Yeah.
163
00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:56,880
My thoughts are thinking about
Multiverse of Madness.
164
00:08:56,880 --> 00:09:00,120
It is a very interesting
contrast with rewatching One
165
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:03,040
Division, because I think
watching One Division One, then
166
00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:05,760
watching Multiverse of Madness
and being like, OK, I can kind
167
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:09,200
of see like why Wanda would go
that path.
168
00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:11,720
Like there's the dark hold.
It's infecting her, right?
169
00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:17,160
But watching again it, it does
kind of irk me a bit what they
170
00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:18,960
did with her in multiverse of
madness.
171
00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:20,640
And that's like a whole nother
discussion.
172
00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:24,120
But in what I'm really excited
for is that not only are we
173
00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:27,160
getting an Agatha spin off and
we're getting a vision spin off,
174
00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:30,600
but Wonder Man, which we talked
about in our initial talk
175
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:32,920
throughs with this because we
see the Grim Reaper mask in one
176
00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:34,760
of the the opening credits and
stuff.
177
00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:38,840
This show alone is getting like
3 spin offs from it.
178
00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:42,320
That just shows you like how
much story there is, but how
179
00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:44,280
much these characters mean to
people.
180
00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:47,680
And I'm very excited to see what
they do with Agatha in this.
181
00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:53,760
So Speaking of Agatha, watching
it again and seeing how in the
182
00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:58,840
first pilot episode, how she
kept trying to like be there, be
183
00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:02,040
the nosy neighbor, but be in
there and not like necessarily
184
00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:04,080
help but not hinder at the same
time.
185
00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:06,480
We know that she wants her
powers.
186
00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:09,000
We know that she wants that
autopilot magic that she talks
187
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:11,960
about South.
Seeing her like put Wanda in
188
00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:15,360
these situations of let's see,
let me test her abilities.
189
00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:19,240
Let me see how far she can go.
Was cool to see because I didn't
190
00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:22,360
realize that even watching it
the first time through knowing
191
00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:24,760
what happened.
And I also think there's a piece
192
00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:27,320
of what Agatha is doing when
you're watching it the second
193
00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:30,360
time around that you could
really see where she's trying to
194
00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:34,360
gain Wanda's trust, right?
To ultimately basically hold her
195
00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:39,320
children captive so that she can
then get Wanda in her lair, you
196
00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:40,320
know, in the basement of her
house.
197
00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:44,480
And so it's so fun watching this
character that's supposed to be
198
00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:47,040
kind of like the wild next door
neighbor.
199
00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:51,200
But in reality, there's a deeper
and darker truth to it, which I
200
00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:53,160
love.
And I think that Katherine Hahn
201
00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:56,360
does that so well.
And you can see in all those
202
00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:59,680
moments how she's playing it up,
how she's leaning into it.
203
00:10:59,840 --> 00:11:04,800
And even when you think of that,
the episode, I think it's on a
204
00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:09,040
on a very special episode when
the boys grow up in an instant,
205
00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:12,640
when that happens, she goes
along with it.
206
00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:16,960
And when she comes in first and
she says to Wanda, did you want
207
00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:19,120
me to take that again?
You know, she's pushing her
208
00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:21,000
buttons.
She's trying to get her to react
209
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:23,680
in a certain way.
And I just think the diabolical
210
00:11:23,680 --> 00:11:28,560
nature of who Agatha at that
time known as Agnes, is, it's
211
00:11:28,560 --> 00:11:31,200
more fun to watch the second
time around because you know
212
00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:34,600
what she's truly doing.
Yeah, I think she does.
213
00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:38,280
And she also was trying to
encourage her to go as far as
214
00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:39,880
she can, right?
Because she calls her chaos
215
00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:42,040
magic.
She's the reason why we know why
216
00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:43,440
she's now called the Scarlet
Witch.
217
00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:48,320
We we have that like actual
magic part of the MCU aside from
218
00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:52,160
Doctor Strange being ushered in
because she's old, right?
219
00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:56,080
What I have loved about Agatha
though, and specifically
220
00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:59,600
Catherine Hahn, is that they
made like second sexy Agatha
221
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:02,920
Harkness a thing because in the
comics she's an old woman.
222
00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:04,960
She's like a governess, right?
She's a nanny.
223
00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:09,120
But ever since Catherine Hahn,
they're like, oh, we should make
224
00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:10,880
her look sexy.
So they've done that in the
225
00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:12,560
comics where now she's also
sexy.
226
00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:14,280
So she's not an old woman
anymore.
227
00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:18,080
So that is the effect that
Catherine Hahn has on the MCU.
228
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:22,320
Yes, the the the Yesification of
Agatha, Agatha Harkness.
229
00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:24,280
Yeah.
One question I do have though,
230
00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:26,560
that I was wondering, and maybe
they answered this and I just
231
00:12:26,560 --> 00:12:28,880
missed it.
So in watching it the first
232
00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:32,720
time, you think that Agatha, I
keep wanting to call her Agnes
233
00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:34,360
because that's what she called
for most of this Agatha.
234
00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:38,800
Agatha, you think that she lived
in Westview and she's just kind
235
00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:41,800
of put under this trance that
Wanda has put them all under.
236
00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:47,560
So my question is, when did
Agatha actually get to Westview?
237
00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:49,960
I don't think they answered.
That they don't, right?
238
00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:55,160
I think there was a part in the
episode where she takes her down
239
00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:58,080
to the basement and she's she's
talking about it like she's
240
00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:00,760
revealing herself, right?
Her hair is all like tussled up
241
00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:03,520
and she's not the put together
nosy neighbor anymore.
242
00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:05,880
She let her hair down, if you
will.
243
00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:10,480
She says something about like
she felt it or she knew like how
244
00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:13,280
much magic was here and she was
drawn to it.
245
00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:16,920
So I I actually like thinking
back, I'm like, were you drawn
246
00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:21,440
to it while Wanda was there or
were you already there?
247
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:23,680
Like there was something about
that place in general.
248
00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:27,280
So I'm not too sure.
Maybe in Agatha all along or
249
00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:29,680
listener, if you know, just let
us know.
250
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:33,200
The moment that vision signed
the deed, now she could feel the
251
00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:36,040
magic and she moved there.
She's watching that again.
252
00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:39,640
It is really interesting just
thinking about the show, how
253
00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:42,080
they did it right.
Because I think all of us in the
254
00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:44,560
first episode, we do get that
dinner with the hearts where you
255
00:13:44,560 --> 00:13:48,920
know that Deborah Joe Rep where
she was like, stop it, stop it.
256
00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:52,760
Not only is it like stop, you
know, taking over all of us, but
257
00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:57,600
also like stop him from choking
where the entire episode
258
00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:02,920
flipped, right?
The first 3 episodes are so kind
259
00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:06,480
of just fun and airy.
And then as it gets on, it gets
260
00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:09,680
dark and it gets serious.
It still has that funny nature,
261
00:14:09,680 --> 00:14:11,080
right?
Because they are sitcoms and
262
00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:13,640
they're still doing that
throughout the decades.
263
00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:17,760
But it's interesting to see how
even the sitcoms through the
264
00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:20,240
decades, how they changed with
that story.
265
00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:24,200
So I like that watching it again
and watching it an all one big
266
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:28,600
spurt almost that it just not
only did the story change with
267
00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:32,760
what they were doing, but it was
just cool to see in real time.
268
00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:35,560
Yeah.
And I I have to admit that those
269
00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:39,360
first 3 episodes are really my
favorite part of this series,
270
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:43,200
the 1st.
Episode the pilot is so good, so
271
00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:46,040
good.
I love living just in Westview,
272
00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:49,400
right, because once we get past
those three, right in the third
273
00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:54,200
one now in color, we meet Monica
Tiona Paris and then we see her
274
00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:56,920
get thrown outside of the heck.
So we know what's going on out
275
00:14:56,920 --> 00:14:59,320
there.
But really just living in
276
00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:03,800
Westview with Wanda and Vision
in that sort of fake happy
277
00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:05,560
place.
But yet we have those weird
278
00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:08,040
occurrences, right?
We have this sort of drone
279
00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:10,160
helicopter come in.
We have the thing with the
280
00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:11,640
radio.
The beekeeper.
281
00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:13,840
The beekeeper.
All those little creepy
282
00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:17,760
mysteries, I loved living in
that Westview with them.
283
00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:21,480
Before we get into all the sword
conspiracy stuff, yeah, I
284
00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:23,320
appreciate it it.
Was a lot of fun because it's
285
00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:25,960
like once you get toward to the
end, it's like, oh, the
286
00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:29,000
beekeeper wasn't Mephisto, it
was just the worker from Sword
287
00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:32,960
and it just changed him as he
went into the sitcom, right?
288
00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:36,400
Having Darcy in there, having
Jimmy Woo.
289
00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:40,320
I mean, the show just introduced
so many good characters and what
290
00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:42,720
I'm loving.
So Jack Schaefer was kind of a
291
00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:46,080
Co creator for the show with
Matt Shackman, definitely a
292
00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:49,760
writer for Wanda Vision.
And they're the ones that took
293
00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:52,560
on doing Agatha, which is really
exciting because you have
294
00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:55,440
somebody that was there for the
creation of Wanda Vision
295
00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:59,000
carrying on that feel.
And with Agatha, we're still
296
00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:03,080
getting that formula of, you
know, each episode is like a
297
00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:05,400
different thing, but it's a
horror genre, right?
298
00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:08,640
That's what they said at least.
And I'm, I'm not sure it's going
299
00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:10,920
to be like exactly like Wanda
Vision where it's like a
300
00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:14,280
televised thing.
But just even looking at the
301
00:16:14,280 --> 00:16:16,480
trailers, it's like, oh, there's
like Wizard of Oz.
302
00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:20,560
There's like you party with the
Ouija board.
303
00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:23,560
It's it looks very like, OK,
these are horror movies or
304
00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:25,560
elements.
One of the things that I noticed
305
00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:29,360
in their ad campaign is I think
a week or two ago they released
306
00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:33,480
new posters for the show.
And what was interesting is that
307
00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:38,680
on my, My, My feed, there was
different outlets saying, oh, a
308
00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:41,360
new poster just dropped.
But they were different posters
309
00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:44,880
each time, and each one was
emulating a different horror
310
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:46,480
genre.
Sort of like the haunted house,
311
00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:48,680
The woods.
And then also some that were out
312
00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:50,800
of left field.
So it was like True Detective
313
00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:53,160
was one of them that they were
emulating.
314
00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:57,280
I believe the first trailer we
got for Agatha was mayor of East
315
00:16:57,280 --> 00:16:59,640
Town.
So it does very much seem like
316
00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:04,200
they're going for the gritty
mystery but also horror side of
317
00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:06,400
that.
That makes me so happy.
318
00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:09,200
I think one of the posters was
Monster House which was.
319
00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:12,880
Like, yeah.
Somebody is a fan of Monster.
320
00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:15,119
House, they're like, Oh my God,
we have to do it to Monster
321
00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:17,720
House.
What was Do you have a favorite
322
00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:19,240
episode?
If you could pick one episode
323
00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:23,160
above all of them, out of these
9 episodes, which one would be
324
00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:27,040
your favorite?
It's oh, yeah, yeah, it's, oh,
325
00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:31,120
that's a really good question.
I either want to say episode one
326
00:17:31,360 --> 00:17:34,480
film before a live studio
audience or episode 3 now in
327
00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:36,120
color.
Very good.
328
00:17:36,120 --> 00:17:39,960
You got either like the Dick Van
Dyke Show or the Brady Bunch.
329
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:42,200
Exactly.
And I'm thinking about kind of
330
00:17:42,360 --> 00:17:44,600
really what they're setting up,
right.
331
00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:46,960
So the first one is all those
initial mysteries of what the
332
00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:49,200
heck is going on here, because
they don't even know what's
333
00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:50,520
going on here.
They don't know why there's a
334
00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:53,680
heart on their calendar.
But then now in color is when we
335
00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:58,520
start to see the darker side of
Wanda in this, especially in
336
00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:01,160
that conversation with Monica
Rambo.
337
00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:05,680
Literally trying to like, Nope,
you're not going to like, take
338
00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:07,000
my fantasy away.
You're supposed to be in
339
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:07,840
character.
Yeah.
340
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:12,040
And of course, the camp of the
stork coming off the painting in
341
00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:14,240
the room.
And so just like that can't be
342
00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:16,320
70s hijinks as well.
How about you?
343
00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:18,440
I love the first episode as
well.
344
00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:22,120
I think it's it's so so good.
But an all new Halloween
345
00:18:22,120 --> 00:18:25,840
spectacular is probably my
favorite, not only for like it's
346
00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:29,080
in Halloween, but like that's
when it like all this stuff
347
00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:31,080
starts coming together.
Everything starts melting
348
00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:32,760
together.
And then you really have Vision
349
00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:36,560
going off on his own.
So you get to see Wanda spiral a
350
00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:39,840
little bit trying to come to
terms with, oh, this is what
351
00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:42,280
I've been doing, even if it was
on purpose or not.
352
00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:48,440
Also, how do I control it with
having the person that I love
353
00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:52,000
still love me willingly?
So it's like, where does that
354
00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:55,200
free will and control come from?
Where does the healing and
355
00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:57,320
trauma stop?
So it was.
356
00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:00,720
It's an amazing episode.
I just love that you also still
357
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:03,960
get that family aspect of it
before it all falls apart.
358
00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:06,040
And not to mention the classic
costumes.
359
00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:09,240
Exactly right.
She's like Scarlet Witch from
360
00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:11,400
back in the day.
He's Vision from back in the
361
00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:13,080
day.
It's just perfection.
362
00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:14,400
Or a fortune teller, as she
says.
363
00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:15,200
Right.
Exactly.
364
00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:18,600
And he's a luchador.
Yeah, Yeah, OK.
365
00:19:19,360 --> 00:19:21,720
And I love that the look they
give each other is very much
366
00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:27,040
emulating like that that Scarlet
Witch envisioned comic of them
367
00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:29,920
looking at each.
Other totally and and in that
368
00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:33,520
episode is when you really see
it the the cracks in the
369
00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:36,720
relationship because he comes
down, he says something along
370
00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:39,400
the lines of well, this is the
only thing in my closet.
371
00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:41,640
Right, because you didn't give
me anything else.
372
00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:45,160
Yeah, it's, it's such a good
show.
373
00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:47,800
I'm very excited to see what
they do with Agatha.
374
00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:49,880
Right.
We have the mystery upon mystery
375
00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:51,600
just in the trailers and stuff
alone.
376
00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:55,840
It seems very much like, oh,
something interesting is
377
00:19:55,840 --> 00:19:58,120
happening.
We have Joe Locke playing the
378
00:19:58,120 --> 00:20:00,280
teen.
That's what they're calling him.
379
00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:03,800
That's everything I'm, I'm
curious to see, like is it going
380
00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:05,120
to be Wiccan?
If so, why?
381
00:20:05,120 --> 00:20:10,120
How, what?
But I'm so excited for us to get
382
00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:13,280
more witches, more magic.
That is one of my favorite
383
00:20:13,360 --> 00:20:15,960
aspects of Marvel Comics.
So I'm glad that we're getting
384
00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:17,720
more of it.
And it's not like Doctor
385
00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:18,960
Strange, right?
Because I feel like Doctor
386
00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:22,560
Strange now is like multiversal
and it's like.
387
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:26,760
It's a different type of magic.
It feels more like practiced,
388
00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:30,240
where Agatha feels more like
witches, right?
389
00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:32,640
It feels like cauldrony.
It feels like it could be
390
00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:35,120
anything and you don't know.
There's runes.
391
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:37,160
I don't know.
It's it's like a different vibe.
392
00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:41,440
Yeah, One of the things I'm most
interested in is that how Missus
393
00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:45,400
Hart or whatever her real name
is, Deborah Joe Rupp, is now one
394
00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:47,400
of the witches in the coven.
Yeah.
395
00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:49,080
What?
So I I.
396
00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:51,960
Wanted to know she is a witch.
Well, right, So I'm curious to
397
00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:55,600
know how, because I mean, I love
Deborah, Joe, Rob, you know what
398
00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:57,480
I mean?
I mean, she's Kitty, the amazing
399
00:20:57,480 --> 00:21:00,240
Kitty from that 70s.
Show what a perfect person to
400
00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:04,360
include in one division because
like she is one of the faces for
401
00:21:04,360 --> 00:21:08,560
a lot of us for sitcoms right
because of that 70s Show and so
402
00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:10,600
to include her in it was just
it's very.
403
00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:14,440
Special And of course the fact
that That 70s Show is a a sitcom
404
00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:16,440
based in another decade and that
came out.
405
00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:18,080
And not filmed right in that
decade.
406
00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:20,440
Exactly.
So that was really just great
407
00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:22,960
casting.
And so I'm interested to see how
408
00:21:23,360 --> 00:21:27,880
we see Missus Hart's evolution
into becoming a part of this
409
00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:32,680
coven.
I don't cover coven I I don't
410
00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:35,840
think this is my theory, right?
OK, if you don't want this to be
411
00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:38,000
spoiled, I don't know for sure,
but like if you don't want
412
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:40,160
anything like Skip.
Maybe.
413
00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:43,320
Spoiler alert, yeah.
So there's a part where it looks
414
00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:47,120
like she gets to the witch's
road by going through some type
415
00:21:47,120 --> 00:21:50,840
of like cellar door situation.
I'm thinking it's in her
416
00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:54,960
basement and she just happens to
be along for the ride.
417
00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:58,600
So I don't know if she's a witch
necessarily, but she kind of
418
00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:03,080
it's in her basement and then so
she's like going along with it,
419
00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:05,360
right?
And then she just goes along for
420
00:22:05,360 --> 00:22:07,000
the ride.
So that's my theory.
421
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:09,600
Like, I think it would be funny
to have this group of witches,
422
00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:13,280
mysterious teen Agatha, leading
it and then like a normal
423
00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:16,400
civilian tagging along.
Yeah, she could do it.
424
00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:19,280
Yeah, it is interesting though,
because I think in one of the
425
00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:22,200
one of the clips though, she
says she's something like an
426
00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:24,160
earthen witch or something like
that.
427
00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:27,040
So she does give herself a title
of witch.
428
00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:30,360
I don't know, really.
Yeah, I didn't see that.
429
00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:33,400
I I it's when well.
Erase everything I just said.
430
00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:36,880
Well, yeah, it's like, but who
knows though, maybe it is in her
431
00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:38,960
basement and Agatha just makes
her a witch.
432
00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:42,160
Who says that she's a witch and
gives her that that title?
433
00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:45,360
That's interesting because I
know Rio is the green witch.
434
00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:49,240
Yeah, it's something like that.
Potions, protection.
435
00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:52,480
I'm very excited.
That cast is stacked and it
436
00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:53,880
loves that they're going to be
singing.
437
00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:57,240
You can't have Patti Lupone.
I was going to say, I mean Tony
438
00:22:57,240 --> 00:23:00,640
multiple Tony award-winning
Patti Lupone is in this.
439
00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:03,520
I mean, that's like mind, mind
flowing.
440
00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:06,240
I mean, the fact that like I
never in a million years would
441
00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:08,600
you have like would I have
thought like Joe Locke from
442
00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:12,640
heart Stopper, Patti Lupone,
Aubrey Plaza, Zasheer Zamata,
443
00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:15,600
Like it's it's like the wildest
bunch of people, but I think
444
00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:16,960
it's going to make so much
sense.
445
00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:20,600
And what a like a fun time, not
only for this podcast, because
446
00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:23,240
we're going Agatha along
directly into Heart Stopper,
447
00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:27,040
which we are doing.
So we're getting like double
448
00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:30,400
doses of Joe Locke.
It's just a fun time for
449
00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:32,360
everybody.
I'm very excited for this.
450
00:23:32,360 --> 00:23:34,960
And it, and I mean, to speak
outside of this, it feels like
451
00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:37,600
we've been in a little bit of a
drought over the summer of
452
00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:40,200
things to watch.
And so it's kind of going full
453
00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:41,960
force into fall, which is.
Exciting.
454
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:44,600
Yeah.
And this is one of the very few
455
00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:46,840
Marvel properties that are
coming out this year.
456
00:23:47,360 --> 00:23:49,120
So it's exciting.
You know, I'm glad that they
457
00:23:49,120 --> 00:23:51,760
scaled back a bit because
watching something that was
458
00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:56,440
their very first TV go and how
much care and attention and just
459
00:23:56,440 --> 00:24:01,000
so well done.
And then some of the stuff we
460
00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:05,600
got, Secret Invasion, I'm sorry.
Don't be sorry, it's the truth.
461
00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:11,600
We tried, but I'm glad they're
realizing something right and
462
00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:14,320
they need to do that.
So my fingers are crossed.
463
00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:17,760
Agatha All Along does really
well and it's a great show and
464
00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:20,520
people receive it well.
Horror.
465
00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:22,160
Horror.
My God.
466
00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:23,480
You sound like you're from New
York.
467
00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:25,560
Oh God, horror.
See.
468
00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:28,120
OK, horror.
It's horror.
469
00:24:28,120 --> 00:24:31,480
It's sound.
That is one of the words that I
470
00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:34,680
feel like if you think about too
much, you cannot say it starts
471
00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:37,120
coming out worse and worse.
So you know what I mean?
472
00:24:37,120 --> 00:24:39,600
Spooky, spooky, spooky.
Yeah, let's stick with that.
473
00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:40,520
I'm.
Not going to say.
474
00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:43,600
It again and I, I do want to
also, one of the things that I
475
00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:47,640
was thinking about is like you
had said, how how I feel like as
476
00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:50,840
the series went on for Marvel,
there there were conversations
477
00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:53,640
that we were having when we were
going, OK, but why did they do
478
00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:55,440
that?
Why did this happen?
479
00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:58,440
It doesn't make sense.
Whereas in one Division I never
480
00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:01,840
felt that way.
You know, yeah, I think it was
481
00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:04,840
like one, it was new territory,
but it was also like these
482
00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:09,320
characters were familiar, right?
And we knew generally that the
483
00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:13,080
show was going to be taking
place in something that was
484
00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:16,240
self-contained.
So it was almost like we had the
485
00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:19,800
freedom to just sit there and be
along for the ride as opposed to
486
00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:22,360
some of this other stuff where
it was like, why are we doing
487
00:25:22,360 --> 00:25:24,120
this?
Like this is out in the real
488
00:25:24,120 --> 00:25:26,280
world.
Like this is interesting, you
489
00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:30,120
know, So I feel like that that's
an aspect personally with Wanda
490
00:25:30,120 --> 00:25:32,640
Vision where it's like it's
self-contained and we could just
491
00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:34,400
like sit there and be like, what
is going to happen?
492
00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:38,040
Anything can happen because
Wanda is Wanda and she's doing
493
00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:40,960
this.
But then it was devastating,
494
00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:42,560
right?
Yeah, it really was.
495
00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:45,880
I have to say, upon second
viewing, I understood the ship
496
00:25:45,880 --> 00:25:49,400
of Theseus a little more.
So I was, I was happy to go back
497
00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:51,080
and and watch that.
And I feel like the first time
498
00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:53,240
we watched it, it was like
during that 5:00 in the morning
499
00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:55,080
phase that we had of watching
Marvel shows.
500
00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:58,960
So giving me deep philosophy in
the middle of a fight at 5:00 in
501
00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:00,440
the morning, my brain could not
handle it.
502
00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:02,520
But this time I was like, OK, I
get it.
503
00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:03,600
I get what they're doing here
it.
504
00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:05,520
Makes me excited for the Vision
show.
505
00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:07,680
Too.
Because we're just we're, we're
506
00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:10,920
going to be getting vision.
It's just that he's going to be
507
00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:12,080
a different color.
Well.
508
00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:13,720
Right.
It's it's going to be
509
00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:16,760
interesting because like, what
type of vision is this?
510
00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:21,240
Because that white vision left
right after he was like, oh,
511
00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:24,760
like I can't kill you because
you're not the true vision, but
512
00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:27,800
I'm not the true vision either.
But also, I have all of the
513
00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:31,280
downloaded memories of the
vision, so am I the vision?
514
00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:34,880
Yeah, so he's going to go off.
I I'm curious because I know
515
00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:37,560
that they're taking inspiration
from Tom King's Vision series
516
00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:42,320
where he has like a wife and
kids that are like androids as
517
00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:43,880
well.
Don't tell Wanda he gets
518
00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:46,240
remarried and has more kids.
She's going to kill them.
519
00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:48,440
Well.
And a dog named Sparky.
520
00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:51,560
So it's going to be interesting.
Are we going to get the same
521
00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:56,840
type of like W viewing situation
where he's pretending to have a
522
00:26:56,840 --> 00:26:59,440
family or does he make a family?
Like what's going to happen?
523
00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:02,160
So I'm very excited for that.
Yeah, that'll be interesting.
524
00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:05,840
But I mean, you know, I, I, we
kind of wanted to do this
525
00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:10,160
episode to get us, get us back
in the mind space of Wanda
526
00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:14,440
Vision in to Agatha, right?
Is there anything that you're
527
00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:18,880
really looking forward to for
Agatha after watching this?
528
00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:25,600
I think that what I'm looking
forward to is the arc for Agatha
529
00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:29,720
in the sense that, I mean, we
had to know that she wasn't
530
00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:32,960
going to just sit quietly in
Westview and play the role.
531
00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:35,960
Well, it seems like until
somebody wakes her up, right?
532
00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:37,680
And.
So that's The thing is, that's
533
00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:39,880
what I'm most curious about.
How does she get woken up?
534
00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:41,320
What does this journey mean for
her?
535
00:27:41,640 --> 00:27:44,680
And at the end of it, you know,
if she survives all this and she
536
00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:47,680
does get her magic back, what
does that mean for the greater
537
00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:50,920
narrative of the story of is she
going to try and find Wanda
538
00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:52,480
again?
Is she going to try and enact
539
00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:55,120
revenge?
Or will she not even make it?
540
00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:57,840
That we don't know.
Do you think Wanda's going to
541
00:27:57,840 --> 00:28:01,880
come back in Agatha all along?
No, really.
542
00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:04,800
Yeah.
I think, I hope she does
543
00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:07,760
personally.
I, I mean, I think it's one of
544
00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:12,760
those things where I miss having
her in the MCU and I think she
545
00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:16,880
is such a powerhouse and there's
so much of her left untold and
546
00:28:17,680 --> 00:28:20,840
she deserves a better chance.
That's the thing I agree with,
547
00:28:20,840 --> 00:28:23,600
and you had kind of touched on
it before, was that at the end
548
00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:27,600
of this series, she understands
what she's done and she
549
00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:32,360
understands why it was wrong.
So for her to completely go in
550
00:28:32,360 --> 00:28:35,680
the opposite direction in
Multiverse of Madness, it's,
551
00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:37,960
it's confusing.
Yeah, and it's, it's one of
552
00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:40,200
those things again, this we
could literally do a whole
553
00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:42,840
another podcast of like
revisiting everything that
554
00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:45,880
Wanda's ever done.
I I, I think it's one of those
555
00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:48,200
things of two separate people
having two separate visions.
556
00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:51,640
And it was set up to be any type
of way.
557
00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:55,160
And unfortunately it was just
like a certain direction, right.
558
00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:57,840
I know that recently there's
been, I don't know if this is
559
00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:01,360
true, but like somebody had saw
like somebody revealed
560
00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:05,760
information about like the first
kind of script for the Wanda's
561
00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:08,600
story or whatever.
And it was going to be Wanda was
562
00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:12,440
a protagonist and with Doctor
Strange the whole time and like
563
00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:14,840
fighting something.
So she was supposed to be a hero
564
00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:17,720
with Doctor Strange supposedly,
right?
565
00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:20,200
Made her a villain.
Which I don't want to believe
566
00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:21,800
because then that would make me
mad, you know?
567
00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:24,120
Yeah.
And Wanda is a very complicated
568
00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:26,040
character, right?
She has been in the in the
569
00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:30,600
comics, so I do think it is good
to have a complicated story for
570
00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:33,240
her, but right after one
division is odd.
571
00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:36,880
Now it does involve her
children, so hey, no more
572
00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:38,680
mutants.
That's where that comes from,
573
00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:41,280
so.
I mean, I guess, I guess we
574
00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:46,360
could say although we learned
that this whole Westview
575
00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:50,320
experience happened because of
her grief, she still never came
576
00:29:50,320 --> 00:29:53,480
to terms with.
They're all through therapy
577
00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:54,520
still.
Absolutely.
578
00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:57,760
And don't forget she she
realized what she did was wrong
579
00:29:57,760 --> 00:30:00,080
and then at the end of it, she
was left by herself again.
580
00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:02,560
But still, I don't want to
believe that that then means
581
00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:05,600
that you go stealing other
versions of yourselves, kids.
582
00:30:05,640 --> 00:30:08,720
No, no, the dark hold was there,
so that's what I'm like.
583
00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:10,520
Elastic to her right?
Right.
584
00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:14,640
I'm, I'm very much looking
forward to that arc for Agatha
585
00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:16,000
as well.
And what does that look like?
586
00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:19,280
Like what is going to be
ultimately where that series
587
00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:20,400
leaves off?
Like what?
588
00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:24,880
What is she going to be?
Is she going to be more in line
589
00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:26,480
with the Agatha that's in the
comics?
590
00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:30,920
Well, Agatha can be an
antagonist, but she's not like
591
00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:35,880
world dominating, right?
So where is that going to leave?
592
00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:39,880
Her and in the Vision series,
right, she's kind of, she helps
593
00:30:39,880 --> 00:30:42,520
them, doesn't she?
Or is she evil in the Vision
594
00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:43,960
series?
But she does.
595
00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:45,680
Right, she helps them.
Yeah, right.
596
00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:48,120
So she's not like a bad.
She's not talking about.
597
00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:49,000
The comic.
The comic?
598
00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:53,440
Yes, exactly.
So maybe that's what it is.
599
00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:57,200
She she goes through this and
gets some sort of pay, some sort
600
00:30:57,200 --> 00:31:00,000
of penance and comes out sort of
a better witch on the other
601
00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:00,720
side.
Yeah.
602
00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:03,760
I mean, I think that some of the
things that make Agatha, Agatha
603
00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:08,480
is like she does kind of look
out for herself, but generally,
604
00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:12,760
you know, especially for like
which kind she will, you know,
605
00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:15,440
bat for the right team depending
so.
606
00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:21,560
Homosexuals.
Yeah, I, I mean, that's what I'm
607
00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:23,360
excited for.
I'm excited to just see Agatha
608
00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:26,560
and I'm excited to be back in
Westview in some shape or form.
609
00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:30,480
Adding Aubrey Plaza and the
whole cast is just going to be,
610
00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:35,480
if you've never seen Legion,
that was on FX, Aubrey Plaza,
611
00:31:35,480 --> 00:31:37,400
that was like her first dip into
Marvel stuff.
612
00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:41,960
She played Lenny fantastic.
That's actually what made me
613
00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:46,360
love Aubrey Plaza.
Insane acting, just bonkers out
614
00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:47,960
of this world.
She's a great.
615
00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:50,680
I'm excited to see what she.
Does I just want to completely
616
00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:54,440
give myself over to whatever
journey this group of actors
617
00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:57,560
wants to take me on because
they're just too powerful not to
618
00:31:57,560 --> 00:32:00,120
do that?
So whisk me away, Catherine Hahn
619
00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:02,560
ET al.
I am I am in for the journey.
620
00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:05,240
Is there anything, OK, we're,
we're wrapping this up right?
621
00:32:05,560 --> 00:32:08,960
Is there anything that you
noticed about Agatha this watch
622
00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:10,160
through?
Because we're, you know, we're
623
00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:11,960
tying this back into Agatha all
along.
624
00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:15,080
Is there anything that you
noticed this watch through or
625
00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:19,440
appreciated with Agatha
specifically going into?
626
00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:22,480
Yeah, I think it was what I had
said before and the fact that
627
00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:26,400
you really got to see the poking
and prodding she was doing the
628
00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:30,720
entire time and how the helpful
zany neighbor was actually
629
00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:33,680
someone that was trying to get
in there and get information.
630
00:32:33,680 --> 00:32:36,720
And I really appreciated that.
Agreed.
631
00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:39,440
Yeah, I love the.
I think the reveal hits just as
632
00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:42,480
hard because like even though
you're watching it and you know
633
00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:44,720
what's going to happen, just
watching it again, it's just
634
00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:49,200
like, I'm like oddly rooting for
her and it's just so cool.
635
00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:52,840
But then like, I don't think I
sympathized again.
636
00:32:52,840 --> 00:32:55,720
I could be contradicting myself
because we've done episodes on
637
00:32:55,720 --> 00:32:57,520
every single one of these
episodes before.
638
00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:02,920
I don't think I sympathize with
her as much the first time as I
639
00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:05,360
did this time.
Just seeing like her origin
640
00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:09,200
story, almost like she she was
drawn to the dark forbidden
641
00:33:09,200 --> 00:33:11,200
magic and she just couldn't help
it, right?
642
00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:13,960
And she ended up, yes, like
killing her coven for it, But
643
00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:17,560
like, what does that look like?
Is she going to answer for that?
644
00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:19,640
Is there going to be some
repercussions in Agatha?
645
00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:22,400
So I'm I'm curious to see what
that's going to be.
646
00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:26,240
I'm very excited.
Also, what made me excited
647
00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:29,640
watching this, Matt Shakman is
the one that creative mind
648
00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:33,960
director for Wanda Vision.
He's doing Fantastic Four steps,
649
00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:38,800
which is also like a period
piece that makes me so excited.
650
00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:40,760
Well, we know he can do it well,
so.
651
00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:43,800
He met with Dick Van Dyke to do
the show.
652
00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:47,840
They made Vision blue because it
wouldn't show up right in black
653
00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:49,160
and white.
I'm just, you know.
654
00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:50,520
They know what they're doing.
They know what?
655
00:33:50,520 --> 00:33:54,560
They're doing and I also just
want to say the missile coming
656
00:33:54,560 --> 00:34:00,600
in to the Maximoff apartment
literally made me yell out loud.
657
00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:03,560
I completely forgot they jump
scared me and they got me good.
658
00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:07,800
Yeah, it's so abrupt, the
editing in this show, fantastic.
659
00:34:08,080 --> 00:34:10,719
Watching it again, some like
especially during the watch
660
00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:13,719
party, I'm like, Oh my God, the
computer skipped or like it like
661
00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:14,880
something's wrong with the
Internet.
662
00:34:14,880 --> 00:34:17,960
It's like, no, that's just how
they edit it so good so.
663
00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:21,760
Good.
Just so perfectly executed.
664
00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:24,679
Well done.
